This is a great sequel to The Wishing Place, it continues on the story about the special place The White Room.

In the first book Valerie called her special place The Wishing Place, but in this second book, her daughter Anika has a similar place called The White Room. Anika's place is not like her mom's at all, her place shows her glimpse of bad things happening and it never shows her enough to figure out what the bits and pieces are about. She spends part of her life trying to figure what everything could mean.

In this book in shows us that Nick and Valerie did have their Happily Ever after, with two beautiful kids Anika and Christopher. It also shows her best friend had his happily ever after, while still being a great dad to his adopted kid Tyne.

This time the story focuses on the kids, mostly on the life of Tyne and Anika. Anika had always been in love with Tyne, but he could never look at her the way she wants..because of their 5yr age difference. Until Anika turned 15, Tyne couldn't think of anyone else but her. He tried to forget his feelings for her and just be a good friend to her like he has always been, but no matter what he did..he couldn't. So he left for college in Italy, to give himself some time away. Being away just made his heart grow fonder. When he came back after months of being gone, seeing Anika grown into a woman made him fall in love with her more. He still tried to keep his distance, because he felt sick about how much he loved her. He doesn't feel it's right, because Anika is so young. After a while, he stops seeing anyone and decided to wait for her to be of the right age.

The more Tyne waits, the more Anika felt restless. She felt Tyne would never love her, because he would never give her hope of a future with him. So she spends her time with a trouble boy Eagel, until she decided to go to Juilliard for the summer Ballerina program and met a wonderful boy named Jesse. I fell in love with Jesse, I mean don't get me wrong, I love Tyne..but Jesse has been just very sweet. He was just honest, sweet guy, who felt like he wasn't good enough to be with Anika. He felt like Anika deserved so much more, because he couldn't give her more time or what she needs.

After going through life and meeting all these people... Will Anika stay with Jesse and forget about Tyne? Or will Tyne and Anika find their way into each others arms?

Another great book from Mindy Haig. This book had made me fall in love with so many characters, it made me laugh and cry, it is truly a lovable story of Anika and Tyne with their family. I love it.

The Wishing Place was magical. You went to sleep and you could be there, if it chose to take you. On those lucky nights you could do anything you wanted and have anything you could think to ask for.

Granny said what The Wishing Place showed was real. She promised Valerie that there was true love in the world waiting for her. Unfortunately, a promise wasn't much to hold on to when Valerie became an unwelcome stepchild.

One night, Valerie asked The Wishing Place to show her something special - something really important. What she got was an eight-year-old boy named Nickolas Rossi who was everything she could want in a friend.

This book starts with 8 yr old Nick and Valerie meeting in a magical place called The Wishing Place. Where once they fall asleep, they could be at the place in all white, if it chooses to take them both.

Valerie was a very pretty lonely little girl, that had a very troubled life after her Granny passed away. Her parents ended up divorcing and both ended up getting remarried.

At times they would meet up every night and other times it would take days or weeks or months, before they get to be around each other again. Months, years pass... Nick and Val became close. They became best friend, they told each other everything. Nick specially was a great listener and friend. Anytime Val is down from her messed up life, Nick would always cheer her up. When they got older and older their feelings for each other became stronger and stronger. Then one day The Wishing Place showed them their future and they couldn't wait to get there.

They always reminded each other to never give up, that they love each other and they will be together one day.

I love this book, it is different from anything I have read before. Even though Valerie had a hard life, she stayed strong with Nick's help. She was never a whiny girl who blamed her life on her messed up parents. She was strong, sweet and caring. Her relationship with Nick has been so cute and sweet. When I was reading the book, I could not wait for them two to get together. Nick has been the sweetest guy ever, he was always there for Valerie no matter what, they love each other unconditionally. It's a really beautiful love story. When I did finish reading the book, I was left with wanting more. I felt like there was so much more to Valerie and Nick love story, so I am looking forward to the 2nd book. I also cannot wait to read more about Valerie's brother Tommy and her High School/College boyfriend Jack, who was also very likable and sweet character. Till then...

***I received an ARC from the author in exchange for a fair and honest review.***☆☆☆☆This is a debut novel by Ingrid Nickelsen. It was a real surprise for me, because I really didn't know what to expect. This is one of those stories that will make you think. If you don't pay attention to everything you can easily get lost, but I loved it. The book has a new and different take on Life After Death.

This book starts up with husband and wife having just another regular day, about to leave to visit family. Then it jumps to young Evangeline in another world, a world where she doesn't have memories of anything about herself, not even her own name. With the help of her godparents, she learns to live in the new world that is so different from what she thought life after death would be.

On her first night in the new world, she meets a mysterious handsome guy named Will. For some reason, even though she had only met him, she felt a connected to him right away. She trusted him with her life and she wondered why. Will promises her that he would help her remember, if she does what he says. Every night that they spend together, the more intrigue she becomes. For some reason Will only comes to see her at night, but she enjoyed every moment they spend together. Until one day she realized she's falling for Will, that she cannot see her world without him in it.

Every day that passes, she finds out more about the world that she's in, that nothing is as it seems. Which she finds out the hard way, witnessing two ghostly figures turning someone into ashes. The only thing that keeps her going, is knowing that Will is around. That no matter how bad her day might have been, Will always make everything better.

Will Evangeline and Will live happily ever after? Or will this new world tear them apart? Read and Find Out.

After reading this book I was lost and wondering where Evangeline story was going. Yes, this book ended with a cliff hanger, but it was a good one. I'm happy to say that Author Ingrid confirmed that there will be a book 2 and I cannot wait to read it. I want my HEA. Please don't make me wait to long Ingrid Nickelson. Thanks for sharing this book with me. <3
